The Godavari River poses a significant threat. Water levels at Bhadrachalam have reached 38 feet and are expected to rise further, potentially reaching 40 feet by evening. Authorities have issued advisories urging residents and machinery operators to remain vigilant.

The relentless downpour has caused significant disruption to the coal industry. Inflow of rainwater into opencast mines in Bhadradri district has forced a complete halt to coal production, potentially impacting power generation in the region.

The overflowing Godavari River has breached its banks and inundated the national highway in Mulugu district, raising fears of widespread flooding.
